21. Chapter 21
The filming went very smoothly, because the theme of the shooting was about lovers and feelings, which was originally what Ah Chan was best at.
What's more, graphic models are similar to actors but different, with no lines and voices, only freeze-frame images. Those emotions that need to be expressed and shown to the audience can only be expressed from the most obvious expressions and limited body movements.
For example, "I feel a little shy in front of him", the most common expression of models is to hide their faces behind the prop book and show half of their faces to express "shyness".
This method of expression is simple to say and seems to have a routine to follow, or it is precisely because most of this method has a specific expression method that it is extremely rare for photographers to take powerful photos - which requires extremely high requirements for the model's eyes and subtle expressions.
But the filming party doesn't need Ah Chan and Huang Se to show such a high-level level, this pair of childhood sweethearts in middle school, should show the kind of love at the beginning, looming feelings and ambiguity, to say that the love is complicated, but in fact, as long as people can see that "she secretly likes him, and he also cares about her", it is enough.
Qizi was originally worried that Ah Chan would feel stiff and jerky under the camera for the first time, but unexpectedly she looked very natural. Especially the smile on his face, stretched and bright, his eyes were like a pool of spring water, as soon as he saw Huang Se, he couldn't help but smile at him, and the affection in his eyes also followed the ripples of light.
The emotions contained in it are very contagious, and after people watch it, they naturally can't help but laugh along with it.
I don't know if it's influenced by Ah Chan, but Huang Se's shooting effect is also very good. Whether in or out of camera, his eyes linger on her, and even if the photographer doesn't ask him to make an expression, his expression naturally softens when he looks at her - but he doesn't seem to know this.
This is inadvertently in line with what the script says, "the love is just beginning, and I am subconsciously attracted, but I don't realize my own mind".
Many staff members are exchanging glances in private, and this obvious "true color acting" certainly makes people can't help but want to gossip.
So as a newcomer, the shooting of Ah Chan and Huang Se was really smooth beyond everyone's expectations.
This set of photos took several days for Ah Chan and Huang Se to finally finish all the shots.
During this period, Ah Chan's expression was better and better every time, and the staff behind the camera couldn't resist her demeanor, let alone Huang Se, who faced her directly.
It's just that after filming, Ah Chan put this matter behind her. It will be a while before the part she and Huang Se photographed will be published in the magazine, and during this period, she has other more important things to do, such as looking for cabbage, raising cabbage in captivity, watering cabbage, and picking cabbage.
Achan's life is still very regular, she goes to school, goes to class, eats lunch with Momoi and Aomine at noon, takes a lunch break, goes to class, and then goes to the basketball club to participate in the ministry work and feed Ziyuan.
As for Kasse...... They are neither in the same class nor in the same club, Huang Se didn't go out of his way to look for her, and Ah Chan didn't go out of his way to wait for him, so they didn't have many opportunities to meet.
They now maintain a delicate distance from each other. It's a little cold, but it's also a little inexplicably ambiguous.
Occasionally bumping into each other's figures in the school corridor, their eyes will always meet and entangle for a while. If the distance is a little closer, the two will bow their heads slightly to each other out of politeness, and then turn their eyes away, and if they are a little farther away, they will look at each other for a while, and then they will look away.
But even if she doesn't have frequent contact, there is no shortage of news about Huang Se in Ah Chan's ears. She often hears news about him from other girls, it's nothing more than that Huang Sejun seems to have a part-time job today, so powerful and popular, which magazine he has been in, and which girls he hangs out with and so on. Ah Chan didn't take it to heart, she knew that she could let him set his eyes on her, but there was no need for that now.
The thing that surprised Ah Chan the most recently was that Deputy Minister Akaji transferred Kuroko Tetsuya to the First Army.
Not only did many members of the department not understand, but even Ah Chan was a little confused.
"It seems to say that Kuroko's ability is more special." Momoi explained, "The deputy minister seems to be preparing to train Kuroko-san as a secret weapon. β
According to Momoi, when Vice Minister Akaji went to look for Aomine, he met Kuroko who was with Aomine, and felt that his ability was very special, so he took charge of absorbing him into the army.
It is not incomprehensible that Ah Chan is a secret weapon, but this kind of "trait" almost never appears on the basketball court, and many people have expressed doubts and uneasiness, especially many members of the Second Army.
Although Akaji is only in the first grade, his status in the basketball club is almost not inferior to that of the minister Hiromura Shuzo. His leadership skills are unquestionable, and those who question it may know that he may really "see" something in Kuroko, but still choose not to accept it, in the final analysis, most of the protests are actually just for their own interests.
After all, there were not many positions that were originally chosen, and the people in the first army were all powerful characters, and they would not give way lightly, and several members of the department who felt that they were much stronger than Kuroko Tetsuya found it difficult to accept that a person from the three armies could directly pass them, not by virtue of "basketball skills", but only by virtue of the reason of "low sense of saving".
It's human nature, but Akaji hasn't been shaken by it.
He said he wanted him to be a shadow of the light.
This description made Ah Chan's heart move.
Because the Const also has such a "shadow under the light" - the elders of the Const clan are such a "shadow under the light".
The elders are the heart and brain of the Const, and in order to protect the inherited knowledge and history, they cannot change any cell in their bodies when other Const people can freely strengthen and modify their genes.
Therefore, in terms of force alone, the elders have always belonged to the "weakling" of the Const. They are always willing to hide their light, only to make the Const more brilliant - but their willpower is by no means comparable to that of humans, and the combined mental power can easily destroy the will of a planet.
The life expectancy of the elders is also gradually shortening, and they need to choose an heir from the newly born Const children to take away and cultivate, but now the race's ability to reproduce is withering...... To date, no Constance child has been able to become the successor of the Elders.
But...... Is the "shadow of the light" of humanity the same as the "shadow of the light" of the Const?
This somewhat distressed Ah Chan. She and Kuroko Tetsuya are also in the same class, so she is responsible for asking him how many times his body is in order to formulate the team uniform.
Ah Chan looked at the recorded number jΓΉ, and felt that the Const people's evaluation criteria for the strong had conflicted with the evaluation criteria of human beings themselves, and she was a little overwhelmed.
In the first line of the basketball club, the tallest is Shihara with a height of 186cm, then Aomine, 175cm, Midorima, 174cm, and Shisaki is about 171cm, and the shortest is Deputy Minister Akaji, who is only 158cm.
But compared to Deputy Minister Akaji, Kuroko is even thinner and thinner - he is only 155cm.
Maybe it's because they're still in the middle of their human development?
Ah Chan thought that adolescent boys are growing up quickly, maybe ...... Kuroko-kun's genetic potential is actually very large? Just like Naruto at the beginning, he was always ridiculed as a crane tail in the early stage, and he seemed to be just an ordinary orphan, but in the end, he was a member of the Uzumaki clan known for his vitality, and he became a hero.
It's just that when he and Naruto met for the first time, Nine-Tails caught Ah Chan's attention, but Kuroko didn't have anything on him.
Chan thought, maybe she should observe again.
However, she had just made this decision, and the next day, the teacher at the school called her out during class time with a heavy look.
"Sakurai-san," the head teacher called her to the corridor with a solemn look, he stared at Ah Chan, and saw the girl in front of him with a blank face, and it was even more difficult to speak. In the end, Ah Chan heard him stop for a while before informing, "Your hometown called just now...... Your grandmother...... Passed away. β
Ah Chan was stunned for a moment, and it took a while for her to react - indeed, for humans, the couple she hypnotized was indeed old enough that they could disappear at any time. However, her stunned expression was obviously taken as unacceptable for a while, and the head teacher did not notice anything unusual, as a teacher, he could naturally learn from the file that Ah Chan had no parents, and had always been raised by her grandparents in her hometown, so it was natural that she must have been hit hard.
He patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, and sighed deeply, "Mourning...... Sakurai-san, the school can give you a week off, and if you have any difficulties, you can also tell the teacher. β
Ah Chan was still stunned, as if she was stunned. Looking at her appearance, the head teacher suddenly showed a look of pity, and he comforted softly: "Don't be too sad, Sakurai-san." β
Ah Chan seemed to have finally come back to her senses, lowered her eyes in a daze, and thanked her a little sluggishly, "...... Thank you, teacher. β
But in fact, Ah Chan didn't get along with the Sakurai couple, and after getting a defensible identity after hypnosis, she left the place where they lived and came to the city where Diguang was. But as "Sakurai Chan", there is no reason why Ah Chan should not go back to the funeral, and she also knows that she should be like a human being, showing grief.
So when she turned around and was about to go back to the classroom to pack her luggage and leave early, her face that had been blank all the time, and her eyes slowly seemed to understand what was happening, and tears filled up. When she walked into the classroom, she was already in a very "abnormal" state with tears streaming down her face but not knowing it, and her eyes were empty.
Ah Chan has always been a high-profile figure in the class, this appearance naturally caused an uproar, many people immediately ignored the teacher on the podium, leaned towards her, and whispered nervously with a stack of concerns and worries to ask what was wrong, Ah Chan could only keep shaking her head at her classmates, and packed her schoolbag with trembling hands and feet in front of her desk, and walked towards the head teacher standing at the door, and followed him out of the school.
The teacher who had interrupted the class had just been informed by the head teacher that something had happened, and he could only sigh at this moment.
Sakurai Chan is also very famous among teachers, she has outstanding looks and excellent grades, such a life experience is naturally even more embarrassing. And by the time class ended, many people had already guessed that someone in Sakurai's house seemed to have passed away.
It is indeed a very bad thing for someone in the family to pass away, but most people subconsciously think that after the death of grandparents, there are still parents by their side. Aomine, Momoi and Huang Se knew that Ah Chan had no father or mother, and the only two relatives were grandparents, so the death of one of them was definitely a worse thing than bad - they suddenly became more worried than the others.
